The Royal Baby. Not good timing

[Gucci1owner]

Hi everyone
Thought I'd share this with you as you will understand.

I lost our second child at 10 weeks back in August. I was absolutely convinced the baby would be a girl, I had a definite strong feeling about it, similar to how I knew our first child was going to be a boy.

She should have been born last month. When I miscarried, soon afterwards the news about the new Royal baby was announced. That was tough enough.

I am now pregnant with who I like to call our 3rd child. All is going okish (hemorrhage a week or so ago, PGP pain and morning sickness which has only just gone at 26 weeks.) As I was so poorly everyone said the baby was going to be a girl and I was really hoping for this.

You can guess that the scan shows the baby will be a boy. Although he is healthy, it feels like God has decided I can't have my little girl back and its really hurting. Yes, I am very very grateful that he is ok, he is strong and healthy and growing at a good rate and I know I am truly blessed to be having him.

So hearing that the new Royal baby is a girl just made me cry so much. I just keep thinking, we should have had our little girl by now and it has raked all of the grief back up.

Like I said, I am REALLY grateful our new addition is healthy and happy and we have named him and getting things ready in case he comes early (apparently a real possibility given how the pregnancy is going so far, midwife says she just want to get me to week 28 and then 32, I'm praying like mad he sticks in his "suite" until week 37 at least.)

Anyway, hope this makes sense.

Thanks for reading xx

You may gt more of a response posting in the gender disappointment section. After 2 losses id personally be grateful for either a boy or a girl as long as he or she is healthy!

You're right Gucci. The royal baby was not good timing at all. I've had a mc and a mmc where babies should have been due in March and June. My mmc was a little girl and should be arriving next month.
It hurts because I am still grieving for my little girl. I expect you are too. Once you hold that little boy in your arms though you will love him so much. It's just that your little girl still holds a place in your heart and will do forever.
